They are in the Cow Hallow area hidden in a little courtyard. AMAZING products.

I personally think it pales in comparison with Facebook's office, but it is definitely not diatribe-worthy (OV). Twitter doesn't have the following or resources of Facebook, so it should come as no surprise that their workspace reflects that; however, I expected more. Twitter is definitely on the ups, though!

My architecture and interior designer colleagues would be appalled at people calling this design. Maybe this should be called DIY decorating. What happened to rigorous design concepts and solutions? Putting silhouettes of birds on a wall does not cut it for me in regards to making an unique identity, space, and experience. This is the problem with design and architecture today. Lack of rigorous ideas and visions of how people will work, live and play. It's unfortunate the people behind Twitter didn't take this design problem seriously.
